"We're not that close that you guys are allowed to do this!" I stared at the three annoying girls in front of me.They and their ridiculous ideas make my head feel full. This is very annoying.Just because I've helped them before doesn't mean I want to be friends with them. So, why do they have to keep coming to my house and doing all the things they want?And what is this? Blind date? Are they out of their minds?"Listen, didn't you say you wanted to do what you couldn't before? Dating is one of them, and since you don't look like you're close to anyone, we took the initiative to pick a partner for you through this blind date!" Via explained.To hell with that date! At a time like this, how could I think of something like that? I have to find the terrorists, who are getting more and more annoying every day. They can no longer enter our housing complex, so they try to harass me outside. A board containing my photo and name covered in blood was displayed on the street in front of the c
I waved my hand casually toward Kenan. Without saying anything, he sat between me and Roy and looked at us in turn."Who is he?" Kenan narrowed his eyes at me."Um..." I didn't know what to say. We just met, and we're also on a blind date. Roy could be offended if I answered incorrectly."I'm Roy, Kei's future boyfriend!"Kenan and I gaped at Roy's statement. Wow! That was amazing!Kenan sighed heavily; he then looked at Roy from head to toe. It was clear from his expression that he didn't like Roy."Future boyfriend?" Kenan asked quietly.Roy didn't answer and just nodded slowly."What are you doing here? Alright, go ahead, don't disturb us," I whispered to Kenan, and I gently tugged Kenan's jacket so he would quickly leave our bench.Well, I can tell Kenan everything later. It's just that I feel bad for Roy; he must be uncomfortable with Kenan's presence. Especially with Kenan's unfriendly stare."What the hell is going on? Do you have a boyfriend? Ah, future boyfriend?" Kenan still
I frowned, confused, at seeing Kenan, who was sitting restlessly on his motorcycle. I don't think he's going to pick me up from school anymore because he hasn't been contactable lately.I accelerated my steps to approach him, who was not far from my school gate."So, are you here to find me or someone else?" I asked once I got close.Kenan didn't say anything and just handed me a helmet. After wearing Kenan's helmet, I sat on the back of his motorcycle. As he usually invites me to eat, this time Kenan drove his motorcycle fast to a place I knew for sure.The Tree House"I'm quite busy today; I have so many tasks to complete. Why did you bring me here?" I looked at Kenan, confused.Kenan shook his head weakly; he was still reluctant to speak. The man then climbed to the top of the treehouse and waited for me there. Annoyed, I followed the man. Why has he been in such a bad mood lately? He often scowls and stares at me intently.I sat beside Kenan and looked around at the view of the ma
Clarisa, Via, and Tiana were silent; they were busy with their thoughts when I asked which girl at this school liked to color her nails or make nail art. They love to gossip and pay attention to others, so they should know a lot about such things.Clarisa took a deep breath; she then showed me her five fingers."There are five girls I know who do that a lot; two of them are our classmates, and the other three are in first grade!" Clarisa exclaimed with great confidence."Who are they?" I was confused."Priska and Amanda are in the same class as us, and the three girls who are in first grade... I don't know their names; all I know is that their appearance is quite striking!" Clarissa explained."If their appearances are conspicuous, why doesn't the Aster Gang bother them? As far as I know, the Aster Gang really hates when other girls are more conspicuous than them!" I argued."Because one of those girls is Lenny's cousin! So I'm sure she doesn't want to get in trouble with her family!"
"You're playing detective?" Steve stared at the book I was holding with an unusual look.Yeah, as if he were underestimating me. Do I look like I'm playing?"I have to investigate something," I whispered.I took another note of the latest information I got from Clarisa about Zoe and her friends.They recently created a club for modeling.I'm not sure if this information is important; I'm just keeping a record of everything they do. Maybe I'll get a hint later."Is that how you investigate? With such blatant Why don't you come straight in front of them and say that you're spying on them?" sneered Steve.Ah, maybe my movements are too suspicious and obvious. I'll try to be more careful."Instead of using a book and pen, wouldn't it be better to use a cell phone to take notes?" Steve exclaimed after taking a deep breath.Yo! That's right; why don't I just use my phone? No one will ever know what I was doing with my phone! Whoa, where's my mind? Why didn't it occur to me? Very strange."L
"So, you've found her?" Kenan asked without glancing at me.Nothing I can say because I have found nothing so far. The girls looked completely normal; there was nothing suspicious about them. I believe they have nothing to do with the terror sent at me."As expected, you don't have a talent for spying. You're just wasting your time on something pointless!" Kenan shouted while stirring the meatball sauce in the bowl in front of him.It was a cold night, and I was lying on the couch when Kenan came to my house and asked me out. And here we are. Our regular meatball shop"Stop nagging; I've done everything I can; if it doesn't work, then it's not my fault!" I protested.Kenan chuckled softly and then spooned the meatball into his mouth.Honestly, I feel relieved to see Kenan in front of me right now. Ever since I started dating Roy, Kenan seemed to have distanced himself from me.I don't understand why he did that. He doesn't like me; shouldn't he mind if I date another guy?"I got the d
"What's this?" I stared at Kenan and Gab in disbelief.They were ready with sports clothes and flashlights around their necks.I glanced at the clock on the wall in the corner of the room and frowned in confusion. It's almost midnight, so what are they here for?"Could I have a bottle of water and some snacks?" asked Kenan, who smiled innocently."Wait a minute! You're not serious about climbing up the mango tree in front of my house, are you?" I argued."Didn't you see our clothes?" interjected Gabriel with his hands on his hips.For whatever reason, they must have lost their minds."Listen, this is so crazy! What if you guys fall or get into some other trouble?" I looked at the two of them in turn.Kenan and Gab shook their heads slowly."Don't worry, we'll be fine! Just give us lots of drinks and snacks, and everything will be fine!" Gab winked at me.I can't argue with them anymore; if that's what they want, what can I do?I left Kenan and Gab to get some snacks in the kitchen. I
I stopped my steps. Now, my mind and conscience are fighting fiercely within me. Lenny was bullying a girl I knew who was in first grade. And of course, her hands were so light, giving slap after slap to the girl.That girl reminded me of my old self, and at that time, I really wished that someone would come to help me. But no one ever came for me.Should I just move on and ignore her as they ignored me? But my conscience strongly refused. I can't bear to look at it.I grabbed my cell phone from my pocket and called Kenan."Hey, what's up?" Kenan asked once the phone was connected."When you had to choose between thoughts and feelings, which would you choose?" I asked without preamble."Feeling!" Kenan said without thinking.Yeah, he answered that quickly; of course he didn't think."Why?""Because if you don't do what your feelings say, you might regret it later!" Kenan answered casually.I took a deep breath, then ended the call without saying goodbye to Kenan.I put my phone in my
The heat of the city of Jakarta immediately greeted me as soon as I left the airport. I waved at one of the taxis, and immediately got into the taxi while the driver put my luggage in the trunk.It's been more than five months since I left Jakarta to volunteer in one of the remote towns in Kalimantan. A month after the birth of the twins, a very big disaster occurred in Kalimantan. I decided to join an organization from my campus to volunteer there. Because the conditions were so bad, I decided to stay there longer than the other volunteers.I asked the driver to take me to a cafe that I used to frequent with Violet.After arriving there, I sent a message to Violet to meet me at that place.“Kei!” Violet shouted from the entrance, making all the customers there immediately turn to look at the girl. It seems like she's still as noisy as before.Violet ran to hug me tightly.“Oh My God! Are you wearing make-up?" shrieked the girl in disbelief.Oh, yes! While I was in Kalimantan, I liked
Violet and I immediately stood up and looked around when the group of police entered the campus area. Some of them entered the Chancellor's room, and some immediately spread out and arrested several people."What happened?" Violet screamed while hiding behind my back."They came to arrest drug users and dealers," said Vano, who had just come to us with Kenan."Does this have anything to do with Adipati's case?" I asked while looking closely at Kenan.The man just nodded slowly. I breathed a sigh of relief hearing that."Unfortunately, the perpetrator of the murder is still at large, the police are hunting him in Bali, because they fled there." Kenan looked at me with a sad look.I smiled in response to his words.“Sooner or later they will be found. I am sure of it. After all, the drug suspects had been caught, Adipati's struggle was not in vain. Now just wait for them to be found!” I said casually.Kenan smiled faintly, then nodded slowly. Kenan's cell phone rang, the man immediately
"Wisnu?" I shouted, surprised to see who was coming towards us.I turned to Kenan who also looked confused.Wisnu sat down and drank the coffee that we previously ordered for the informant who contacted Kenan."You shopped for necessities for your sister?" Wisnu asked with a smile.I nod quickly."She's seven months pregnant so we bought some things," I said even though I was still confused."Someone keeps following me, so it's safer to meet in a public place like this, as if meeting a friend and having a casual chat," said Wisnu casually.I nodded slowly.“Why don't you message me with your own number? Or if you are being followed, you can say it in a message," Kenan said.Wisnu smiled so widely."I don't know, I'm afraid if my number is tapped or something, it's just my worry. Technology is so scary these days.” Wisnu said, trying to look relaxed.I nod quickly. I don't care what the reason is. I only need the information that Wisnu will convey.“Recently on campus, drugs are spread
"Mafia members who are related to the Marko family," Kenan said slowly.I stared into Kenan's eyes sharply. He said it so confidently.“They did it? So, Marko's family is behind this murder? Why does it have to be Adipati? Why don't they just target me? I mean, Marko is in prison because of me, not because of Adipati. Why are they doing this?”Kenan just shook his head weakly in response to my words."I will investigate, I will bring the culprit before you," Kenan said while stroking my cheek gently."You promise?" I insisted.Kenan nodded slowly without the slightest hesitation.“I doubt if they killed him to get revenge for Marko's capture. I'm sure there are other things that make them target Adipati,” Kenan said slowly.I shook my head slowly. I don't remember if Adipati ever had anything to do with them.“Is there anything I can help you with? How are you going to investigate this?” I urged Kenan.The man just shook his head slowly, he looked at me deeply."Calm down, we have to
I'm still here, I'm still with you, when dusk greets me, I feel your presence. You are a source of warmth, comfort, happiness. Why don't you take me with you? You went and left all these memories with me.It's too fast, I'm not ready, I'm not willing to let you go.What shall I do without you, Adipati?What should I do?"Kei..."Violet's gentle voice greeted my eardrums. The girl came to me and sat beside me. I don't want to see her, the whiny me will cry again if I look at my best friend's face.Violet just accompanied me in silence in front of Adipati's grave."It's almost evening, don't you want to go home?" Violet asked quietly.I looked up at the sky which was starting to get dark, the cold wind continued to blow at us."Can't I just stay here? Adipati will be lonely here," I answered quietly."No, he will be angry and sad if he finds out you spent time in a dark and scary place like this," said Violet.Correct. If he saw me, he would definitely be furious.“Your dad and Selena a
Vano slept curled up on the sofa while Kenan played games on the bed. Violet cleared her throat, making Kenan and Vano open their eyes wide.“Kei?" Kenan shouted as he approached me. He pulled the IV tube closer to me who was still standing in the doorway.“Your face is very pale, are you okay?” I asked slowly.Kenan smiled faintly, then nodded slowly. Violet helped me to sit on the sofa. She then woke up the sleeping Vano and invited him to go to give me space to talk to Kenan.Kenan sat beside me, looked at me from head to toe, and breathed a sigh of relief."It's not your fault, so don't blame yourself," I said matter-of-factly.Kenan immediately averted his eyes, not daring to meet my eyes. He looked nervous. Kenan, who is always full of confidence, suddenly gets nervous when he's with me. That's how much guilt he has.I took Kenan's hand, and then held it gently, making him immediately turn and look at me deeply."This is not your fault. It's just a road I have to walk, we pass.
Marko was still looking at me sharply, occasionally he gripped both sides of my cheeks with one hand.I don't know what was in that man's mind. He could have done whatever he wanted quickly, why was he stalling for time? What does he really want?"What if we do this? I will release you on several conditions!” Marko suddenly shouted."What conditions?""First, you withdraw your report at the police station, second, give Kenan to me!" Marko exclaimed quickly."What?" I screamed in disbelief.“You know, he's not just anyone, I had a hard time injuring him! I've already sent several people to kill him, but it seems like he has nine spare lives. Very hard to kill!”I gaped at Marko's story. Did he ever try to kill Kenan? Why didn't Kenan tell me anything? Oh, I forgot. Kenan never told me anything.“Help me trap Kenan, haven't you two broken up? It should be easy for you to do! Just like you saved Violet by falling into my trap, save yourself by bringing Kenan to me!”My tears just flowed.
"Is this necessary?" asked Selena seeing the presence of a bodyguard among us."Only until this case is over," I said quickly.Selena glanced at Dad, and Dad just nodded slowly."How about you? You might also be in danger, rather than me, you should be guarded by bodyguards!” Selena snapped."Don't worry, I have a handsome bodyguard who will always take care of me!" I wink at Selena mischievously, making her smile knowingly."I'm sorry that I didn't take good care of you, you got into all kinds of trouble like this." Dad came closer to me and looked at me with deep eyes."No, it's not because of you, it's my fault because I used to hide everything from you. If I had just told you everything in the past, things wouldn't have gotten this bad!” I said quickly.Dad hugged me very gently. I don't know when was the last time he hugged me like this, what I know for sure, is it's been a very long time.“I will make sure to punish those naughty kids!” cried Dad with great emphasis.I didn't sa
The sound of the phone ringing kept disturbing my sleep. Hearing Violet's screams from the cell phone made me very annoyed. If I didn't remember that my cell phone is quite expensive, I wouldn't hesitate to slam the thing on the floor right now.And seriously, why does Violet always use her voice as the ringer on my cell phone? Crazy!I straightened my body, stretched my tense muscles, and took a deep breath of air.Good morning world, today… Please don't be so mean to me.I pulled out my cell phone and picked up a call from Violet.“Please, don't fiddle with my phone anymore! Your voice penetrates my dreams, you know that?” I exclaimed annoyed.A low chuckle could be heard from the other side.“My voice is quite melodious, right? By the way, why didn't you go to class today?"Wait! What did she just say? Didn't go to class? I turned to the side, staring blankly at the digital clock lying on my table.Damn it, the clock shows that I woke up not in the morning but during the day."And
